Independent Auditors' Report

The Administrative Committee
Canadian National Railway Company
Union Savings Plan for U.S. Operations:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Canadian National Railway Company Union Savings Plan for U.S. Operations (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plan's management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Canadian National Railway Company Union Savings Plan for U.S. Operations as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for benefits. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

2. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following brief description of the Canadian National Railway Company Union Savings Plan for U.S. Operations (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the summary plan description for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan, as amended and restated effective November 1, 2000, covers certain union employees of Illinois Central Railroad Company (ICR), Grand Trunk Western Railroad Incorporated (GTW), Chicago Central and Pacific Company (CCPR) and Duluth, Winnipeg and Pacific Railway Company. Prior to November 1, 2000, ICR maintained the Illinois Central Railroad Company Retirement Savings Plan (the ”IC PLAN”), GTW maintained the Grand Trunk Group Employee Savings Plan (the “Grand Trunk Plan”) and CCPR maintained the Chicago, Central and Pacific Company Bargaining Employees’ 401(k) Plan (the “CC&P Plan”). The Plan is a result of the merger of the IC Plan, the Grand Trunk Plan and the CC&P plan. On November 1, 2000, $30,879,904 of the Grand Trunk Plan’s net assets was transferred to the Plan and the remaining net assets of $8,557,465 was transferred to the Plan on January 2, 2001 due to a delay by one of the unions in ratifying the transfer of funds. Transfers of assets from a related CN employee plan for management employees are also included in the receipt of plan assets in both 2002 and 2001. Eligible employees may participate on the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or next following the first day of employment. Part-time eligible employees may participate once they have completed certain employment requirements. This Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

CONTRIBUTIONS

Participants may elect to make contributions to the Plan through periodic payroll deductions in amounts ranging from 1% to 20% (up to 100% effective July 1, 2002) of each participant's base salary. The total pre-tax contributions by a participant are limited to $11,000 in 2002 and $10,500 in 2001 (subject to adjustments to reflect changes in the cost of living pursuant to Section 402(g) of the Internal Revenue Code). Effective July 1, 2002, the Plan incorporated the “Catch-up” provisions provided for in the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (EGTRRA) for employees meeting the eligibility requirements set forth therein. The “Catchup” provisions allows employees who are at least age 50 by the end of the plan year to contribute additional pre-tax dollars up to a maximum amount of $1,000 in 2002, $2,000 in 2003, $3,000 in 2004, $4,000 in 2005 and $5,000 in 2006. Thereafter, the amount will be increased to reflect changes in the cost of living. Contributions to the Plan on behalf of the participants are made by the Company in lieu of an equal amount of salary.

The Company contributes an amount equal to 25% of each participant's contributions up to the first 4% of salary (a maximum Company contribution of 1% of salary) if the bargaining agreement provides for such contribution.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions, all of the Company’s contributions, and an allocation of earnings and expenses. Allocation of each is based on the participant's account balances at the time of allocation. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

Investments are stated at fair value. Quoted market prices are used to value the stock. Mutual funds are valued at the redemption price established by the mutual fund administrator.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Contributions and interest income are recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Loans deemed to be in default are recorded as distributions.

The Plan considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
